The hour hand can rotate independently and is equipped with a GMT movement that can display the second time zone. After that, it was discontinued in 1988 and only produced for about four years. The third-generation EXPLORE Ⅱ inherited the short-lived second-generation design, and it is also the Ref.16570 that we see the most in the second-hand market. It has been in continuous production for about 20 years, during which it has repeatedly made many minor changes. Depending on the details, the market price is also different, and the current final vintage and single buckle bracelet individuals are more highly valued.

In 2011, it ushered in the 40th anniversary of its birth. To return to the original intention of the development concept and design in 1971, the fourth-generation EXPLORE Ⅱ was born. The most direct manifestation is that it reproduces the 24-hour pointer of the first generation.

Finally, hublot replica Rolex released the fifth-generation cash EXPLORE II in 2021. Although the appearance has mostly stayed the same as the previous generation, a new movement 3285 is installed.

Ref.226570 was released on the 50th anniversary of the noob replica watch. The orange 24-hour pointer always reminds people of the original Ref.1655. Even if you’re not a fan of the past, you’ll always have the urge to take a look. The 42mm case follows the previous generation’s design, and the appearance change is relatively small.

Black The roots of the hour, minute, and 24-hour hands of the old model Ref. 216570 were painted black, but the new model does not have them at all.

The current market price of the new model is a little higher than the public price, but the editor feels that it is not too much, and the cost of the white plate is still higher than that of the black plate.
